Make your own, here is the recipe!





Ingredients:


2 tbl solid shortening


1 tbl cornstarch


4-5 drops food coloring





Directions:


Mix shortening and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth. Add food coloring. Mix until the color is even and apply. You can remove it with soap %26amp; water! Its that easy! Good luck!Will Craft paint work for face paint/body paint?
Eep! It'll work but it could cause a severe allergy (non-toxic is not hypoallergenic) and it will crack/peel.





Snazaroo (my favorite), Ben Nye, Mehron, Kryolan and others make real face paints. Silly Farm Supplies - www.sillyfarm.com carries tons of great products for face painting. These products work much better and are much safer.
Try to find face paints - the dyes in them are, I think, classed as 'food grade' and most people don't react badly to them. It's very risky to use acrylics on your body as there might be a chemical reaction with sweat, toiletries, etc, and it's not worth trying.
Mhmm, it'll work.


I'm sure there's some special kind of face paint out there, but the only advantage would be that it's easier to take off.


Any old paint has probably an 80% changce of working, but I'm no doctor.


Good luck, and have spirit!! =]
